WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JUNE 13 1925 Portals of Learning Ground was broken last Saturday for Harrison hall, the $500,000 building which is to house the National Kindergarten and Elementary college on the new campus at 2970 Sheridan road, at the Wilmette-Evanston boundary line. Above is illustrated the entrance to the beautiful structure which, it is expected will be ready for occupancy January 1, 1926. HIGH SCHOOL SUMMER WORK BEGINS JUNE 22 Summer school will be in session at the New Trier High school from June 22 to August 14. Classes will be held in the morning from 8 to 12:30 o'clock. The preliminary enrollment indicates that about 500 students will be in at- tendance. Students of the "flunker" type are rapidly being replaced by the ambitious student who is desirious of taking up work which he could not crowd into his: course during the regular school year, it is explained. Then, too, the tendency on the part of colleges and universities to pick their prospective students, requires more thorough pre- paratory work. Each year more par- ents realize that to loaf - for three months is demoralizing, and that it is no hardship for the normal boy or girl to study one or two subjects for a per- iod of eight weeks, under ideal condi- tions. The instruction is given by the mem- bers of the regular faculty, which guarantees the quality of the work. The regular semester's credit towards grad- uation is given in the subjects com- pleted during the summer session. "Villa Venice" Calls to Pleasure-Seekers The "Villa Venice," formerly the "House That Jack Built," situated on Milwaukee avenue at the Desplaines river, has been entirely remodelled and lavishly furnished and equipped, mak- ing it one of the most delightful show places in this part of the country, it is said. The Villa Venice is now open with a New York production under the personal direction of Albert Bouche with music by Charles Kerr's Philadel- phia Social orchestra. French, Italian and American dishes are served and table d'hote dinner is always available. American Beauty' ELECTRIC IRON the best iron made You are living in an electrical age; make the most of it.
